1. GENERAL DESCRIPTION:
A micro textured skid resistant crack sealing system for use on concrete and asphalt pavements. The Armourseal range of hot applied overbanding systems are general purpose crack sealing systems which in service achieve minimum SRV values of 45 and 60 respectively.
2. PRODUCT:
Armourlay® BP03 & 03A Grades are polymer modified bituminous crack repair materials which are designed to achieve SRV values of ≥ 45 and ≥ 60 respectively. The products are formulated to resist trafficking and deformation in temperate climates and are suitable for application on all types of asphalt and concrete surfacing.
USES:
• Overbanding & Crack Sealing Repairs.
• Kerb Sealing Work.
ADVANTAGES:
• Fast and effective, minimises traffic disruption.
• Highly ductile, prevents further deterioration.
• Increases pavements serviceable life.
• Easy to install and cost effective.

5. SAFE HANDLING PRECAUTIONS:
*Do not exceed the maximum safe heating temperature.
*Do not allow the hot material to come into contact with water as the product will react violently.
*Always wear the recommended protective clothing – see below.
6. ACUTE HEALTH HAZARDS & ADVICE
Armourlay® BP03 & 03A presents no acute health hazard at ambient temperature. However, as these materials are normally handled at elevated temperatures when they’re physical state changes to a liquid, the bitumens present in these products give of fumes, which are undesirable to inhale as very small quantities of HYDROGEN SULPHIDE may be present in the bitumen.
RECOMMENDED PROTECTIVE CLOTHING:
High Visibility Jacket, Hard Safety Helmet, Overalls, Goggles/Visor, Armlet Gloves and Closed Safety Boots AT ALL TIMES when handling hot product.
INHALATION:
Inhalation of the vapours should be avoided.
INHALATION FIRST AID:
Remove the affected person to fresh aid. If breathing has stopped administer artificial respiration. Give cardiac massage if necessary. If the person is breathing but unconscious place in the recovery position. Obtain medical assistance immediately.
SKIN CONTACT:
Bituminous products present no acute health hazards to the skin other than burning when handling at elevated temperatures.
SKIN CONTACT FIRST AID:
Flush the contaminated skin with cold water. DO NOT ATTEMPT TO REMOVE THE BITUMEN. Cover the burn with a sterile dressing. Do not apply any medication to the affected part. Obtain medical attention immediately.
EYE CONTACT:
Contact with fumes may cause irritation and redness.
EYE CONTACT FIRST AID:
Irrigate with copious amounts of water for 10 / 20 minutes and seek medical advice immediately.
PRECAUTIONS:
Avoid contact with the skin by use of suitable protective clothing.
TRANSPORTATION:
Not classified as dangerous for transportation.
